This beautifully appointed home provides a memorable 2 acre lakeside retreat. The home includes a large negative edge swimming pool with heated spa, and large outdoor patio. Among the notable features are reclaimed hardwood flooring, amazing interior lighting, and wall of sliding glass doors. This home is designed for getaways, reunions, small weddings, or a quiet place to enjoy beautiful sunsets. It's a destination in itself, but also located just 35-40 minutes from downtown Austin.

This home is situated on nearly 2 acres on the south shore of Lake Travis. It has both indoor and outdoor space. The home has 3 bedrooms with king size beds in each, as well as a lower level (bedroom) with built in bunk beds (3 twin beds and 1 full bed); in addition, there are two comfortable chairs that fold out into twin beds. The living room also has a sleeper sofa pull out bed in the sectional. The outdoor space has room for multiple vehicles. The home also is also equipped with a gas grill, as well as a ping pong table, volleyball net, tether ball, horse shoes, canoe, etc. There is also a dock.

The property is very private and sits on 2 acres. The property is waterfront and has a dock for swimming and tying up a boat.

Kim's lakehouse ideally accommodated the 3 generations of our family, providing class and comfort for our parents and constant fun for our children. There was plenty of room, both indoors and out, for our group to socialize and entertain. We enjoyed the integrated system for streaming music to the house speakers, setting pool pumps and lights, and controlling the heated spa. Beds were extremely comfortable and house was clean. Everything was available for us to cook/grill our food and do our laundry. Having our boat docked directly on the property was a huge convenience. Our tip to future tenets would be to maximize this experience with longer stays, if possible (our single regret was staying only 4 days).

A beautiful peaceful property with a Great Lake view! Perfect for our weekend family reunion! The host had thought of e everything to make us feel truly at home! We will return here!! Thank you Kimberly!!!!

Gail2017-06-18T00:00:00Z

You will not find anything that will match the quality, value and enjoyment in Austin or the TX. Hill Country. Chateau Kimberly on Lake Travis will be for anyone that gets to experience it a special place!! The location to ski /pontoon boat rental 5 minutes, with your own private dock below house on Lake Travis, outstanding restaurants & live entertainment, mega size grocery stores, hip little shops for clothing, upscale cigars wine & spirits all within 10 minutes including great golf & tennis at Lakeway Resort next door. IT JUST DON'T GET ANY BETTER!

Ken2017-08-02T00:00:00Z

Amazing experience, house is just completely updated, everything brand new. Great location on the water with boat dock, grounds are large and have fun things for everyone. Bunk room is a great place for all the extra people, not cramped at all! Living room view and windows best ever, and pool area seems like it is part of the house! Kim is so kind, and will help with anything.

Robin2017-07-01T00:00:00Z

This home was everything and more! Such a great location with beautiful views of Lake Travis. Kimberly was such a great host and was available anytime we needed anything. My family cannot wait to be back.

Saher2017-07-23T00:00:00Z

Stellar experience! Everything about our stay exceeded our expectations. The house is beautiful and careful thought has been put into every detail to make guests' stay comfortable and worry-free. The location is tranquil and serene, but only a short drive from food and shopping. At one point we ran out of household supplies and Kimberly drove them to us and left them on the front porch. We all agreed this was one of the best vacation experiences we've had and we are definitely coming back.

David2017-07-30T00:00:00Z

This is the best place to stay on Lake Travis hands down! The pictures don't even do it justice! It's immaculate and beautiful inside and outside the pool and view are spectacular! The kids loved the bunk beds and the king size beds were so comfortable! Kimberly makes sure you have everything you could possibly need for your vacation and has wonderful advice on local places to eat and shop. She was always a text or phone call away and quick to respond. We will definitely be staying here again the next time we are in Austin!

Lee2017-07-28T00:00:00Z

Great location! Kimberly was a great host, responded quickly and did everything to make our stay the best possible. Beautiful house and pool. The boat dock is a major plus! Will definitely be back to stay again.

1000 sq. ft 2 bedroom space with a private pool! This is the first floor of our home and is completely separate from the rest of the house. You will have lake access which is right across the street. We also have 2 kayaks avaliable for use.

The space has been recently remodeled. It has granite counter tops in the kitchen, a stained concrete floor and beautiful acents.

The view is amazing. We are located 5 minutes from the well know Austin Restaurant The Oasis.

This place was great! It was decorated beautifully and was right on the lake! I would definitely stay here again.

Madison2017-01-13T00:00:00Z

Kimberly and Erik's condo was great. It's newly finished, great amenities, and tucked away with a private pool. They are ideal host as they were silent but prompt with any needs or requests. Highly recommend!

Christian2015-10-26T00:00:00Z

Eric was extremely helpful upon check-in! The place was extremely beautiful and clean, I truly enjoyed my stay on lake travis. It was too cold to use the pool but it's still incredibly beautiful. You can tell a lot of thought went into this air b&b.

Great example of classic Austin composure. Bohemian modern industrial meets nature. I love the contrast. Super classy and just the right amount of nature. Seriously great vibes

Mercedes2017-01-29T00:00:00Z

Great spot! Proximity to the lake is awesome. Really quiet, easy parking, very clean.

Terence2017-01-16T00:00:00Z

We had a really nice night at Kimberley and Erik's place. I wish it had been easier to carry the kayaks down to the lake. Unfortunately, the road down to it is not at all drivable and in 100 degree Texas heat, it's hard to carry a kayak for even 2 blks down and uphill.

Marlen2017-08-19T00:00:00Z

Kim and Eric's place is amazing!!!! They were very kind and inviting! The place is in a beautiful area. The view is so nice, especially during sunset. It's very spacious and the rooms are cozy. I really loved the dem lights switch in every room! Super clean home! I wished I could have stayed longer. The drive up to their home is also a wonderful sight. One of my best Airbnb experiences!!!!!

Custom Home with fantastic views and large spaces perfect for entertaining.A true Hill Country retreat experience 30 minutes from down-town Austin, 5 min from Lake Travis access, and .5 miles from Lake Austin.

Relaxed and incredibly friendly. A true old-school Austin "Lake Community". Tons of wildlife, open spaces, amazing sunsets, great restaurants. Close to town, but it feels so far away- you can still see meteor showers, yet be downtown in 30 min. Great local activities, restaurants, and shopping!

The house was just lovely. It was the perfect size for us. The bride, bridesmaids as well as mom and dad were all there and we had a great time. The home was clean and orderly we did a lot of cooking so having all those spices available to us was wonderful. What I loved the most was the balcony and views. I would go out there every morning and do yoga, meditate and then have a cup of coffee while enjoying the gorgeous vistas. Thank you for making your home available to us.

Luisa2014-09-30T00:00:00Z

Nathan's home was beautiful and the neighborhood was so serene & relaxing! Exactly what we needed to come home to after crazy busy days in Austin! Was great to have a safe place to hang out with our kids(1&4)! My oldest, my son, loved "his room" on the 3rd floor where he could play with tons of toys & have his own place to get away from his sister! The stairwell going to the 3rd floor was a little difficult to manage with our younger one, but I managed to block it off with laying the gate flat! The kids had a ball in the back yard & exploring all around! The beds were comfortable which is huge for us! All our food needs were met, just grabbed few things at the Randall's down the road. So many great restaurants close by too which was wonderful! Thanks so much for you're hospitality!

Ty2014-10-07T00:00:00Z

This was a fantastic vacation house in Austin. Nathan was very accommodating. Every convenience was at your fingertips. The views were lovely and our family had a fantastic Easter . I would not hesitate to stay there again. The deer and squirrels that visited us were a pleasant surprise.

Robin2015-04-07T00:00:00Z

The house location and the view is great!!

Robert2017-08-29T00:00:00Z

This was an amazing home and even better than in the pictures. With the breathtaking views and the spacious living areas it was perfect for our family Thanksgiving. Luckily for us the weather was perfect and we got to spend plenty of time outside on the balcony relaxing and enjoying each others company. It was a wonderful set up for if you have little ones, we had a 6, 5, and 2 1/2 year old there and they really had a great time! The nice thing is there is a park down the street from the house for the kids and we walked down there. I really can't say enough great things about this house it was just so perfect! Nathan is a wonderful host for airbnb and was so sweet and helpful. I would recommend this for any occasion!

Melissa2014-12-01T00:00:00Z

Stay was awesome. Nathan is definitely a super host. Easy entry, great communication, food, wine, beer, toothpaste you name it was set out for me and my family. The place is even more stunning in person and a short drive from the river and boat ramp.

Brandon & Lorielle2016-06-21T00:00:00Z

Incredible place to stay for a group trip to Austin. Downtown is 30 minutes away but Nathan's place is right by Lake Travis, great restaurants and golf courses. Great place to stay in Austin!

Stuart2017-05-29T00:00:00Z

Very intimate and private, luxurious, and completely stocked house. I could not praise the house or the host anymore. Perfect.

Come enjoy the Lake and Hill Country. Swimming from boat dock & Hot tub. Close to the Hill Country and Austin. It is so very quiet out here and relaxing. Bring your boat and dock it here. Fishing from dock so don't forget your poles. Propane grill on dock & deck for Bbqing!

Huge lots with million $$$ homes all around on large lots with great views of Lake Travis. Great for walking or jogging and just relaxing. Very quiet and peaceful.

Mark was a wonderful host! Very welcoming and was quick to answer any questions that we had about the property and home. Besides the beautiful view from the back porch we also enjoyed heading down to the lake area of the property and relaxing. But one of my favorite parts of our stay was Mark's exceptionally sweet dog, Pooka. Made us feel we were right at home. Would definitely suggest you consider staying here and we can't wait to come back!

Amanda2015-10-04T00:00:00Z

Great place by the lake! We went with a group of 6 girls for a relaxing bachelorette and it was perfect. The hosts were extremely accommodating and the location was beautiful. Would definitely recommend anyone to visit here!

Danique2016-04-10T00:00:00Z

Amazing view! Great house and environment!! So all in all we had a great time. Very strange as my husband tried to speak to him and he would only talk with me!! Renters house is down stairs so, very LOUD foot walking until late hours of the night. Tenants wanted more income for our children. So I would define fly pick a different place of possible. The yard wasn't manicured or even picked up. Wanted top dollar for a Very very step walk up from the lake, which was not mentioned!

Amanda2016-03-17T00:00:00Z

Mark is the perfect host, he went way above and beyond expectations by helping us load/unload our boat, helping out with some special requests and most importantly, he is a phenomenal communicator! I recommend this place to anyone that enjoys the water and wants to relax at Lake Travis. BTW, the house is super clean and accommodated to handle all your needs for a weekend trip, if you have specific requests I recommend asking Mark before your arrival.

Michael2016-05-31T00:00:00Z

Just stop looking and book this place now. It's not just a great bang for the buck it's an amazing experience and place to unwind. I am so glad I didn't go to a hotel. Mark was an amazing host. Even though we didn't get in until midnight he waited up for us. The listing was even better that described online as the pictures don't really give the views justice. The sunrises and sunsets were amazing.

Garret2016-10-03T00:00:00Z

We had a wonderful anniversary getaway, the property is beautiful and perfectly private . The views are amazing. Our host was very polite and took care of our needs including, coffee creamer, a phone charger and ice which we forgot:). We will definitely book again.

Marianne2016-10-09T00:00:00Z

The location is great, and the view is spectacular. Mark was very responsive and easy-going. The walk to/from the boat dock was down/up a pretty steep incline. We certainly enjoyed hanging out at the boat dock - makes me want to buy a paddle board!

Alisa2017-03-11T00:00:00Z

This place is amazing! It's absolutey gorgeous. My boyfriend and I stayed for one night and it was exactly what we were looking for - a relaxing, quiet, beautiful place on lake Travis. The hot tub is an awesome touch. We loved using the paddleboard and the kayaks. We came in the middle of October and we were still able to swim without the water or weather being too chilly. Mark's dog, Pooka, is the sweetest ever! Mark was very communicative and a great host. We would definitely stay again! Five stars across the board! Thank you, Mark!! :)

Beautiful, private 2 bedroom suite, with bath and large living room area. Included is a treetop level, outside deck with a fantastic view of valley below. Quiet and peaceful. Perfect spot to get away or for touring musicians/artists to practice. Sorry, no children under the age of 12.

Private and secluded suite in a sectioned off house with a fantastic view of the valley below. Nice for just getting away and still be close to Austin activities. Perfect spot for traveling/touring musicians who'd like a secluded place to practice. Includes private entrance, 2 bedrooms, private bath, spacious living room with fire place, semi-shared kitchen, access to newly renovated deck with a fantastic view of the valley below. Free parking. Very quiet on 3.5 wooded acres. Note: The house is arranged in a duplex fashion. The owner lives in other side but the suite is completely private. Each side is separated by a wall and locked French doors covered on by sides by thick, heavy curtains - both sound proof and visibly shut off.
ONLY registered guests are permitted to stay unless cleared by owner.

Located in the wooded hills area of NW Austin. Private and secluded neighborhood with fantastic view of valley and Colorado River. Property on 3.5 wooded acres. Two nearby nature trails and large park grounds (Emma Long). Lake Travis only 10 minutes away. A number of good, local restaurants between 9-14 minute drive.

The home was comfortable and spacious with a spectacular view. We spent most of our time relaxing on the deck enjoying the views. The host responded promptly to all emails and was there to welcome us shortly after we arrived. Although he lives in the home, we rarely saw him during our stay. The house was very clean and set up well for Airbnb guests with a separate entrance and refrigerator. The location is great and was only a 15-20 minute drive to downtown. It is located in the hills with winding roads that were difficult to navigate at night. I really enjoyed my stay and plan to stay here again soon.

Sharlyndra2016-06-06T00:00:00Z

Simon2015-06-21T00:00:00Z

Wonderful place! The view is amazing. Cozy and very inviting house in the most scenic area of Austin.

Sarah2015-11-08T00:00:00Z

Vincent and I corresponded before flying to Austin. He promptly answered questions I had. I appreciated this. He was away during our stay so we didn't get to meet him. I look forward to this some day.

Estelle2015-06-09T00:00:00Z

There is so much positive I could write about Vincent and this location. This was my first time using Airbnb and Vincent made it quite simple and easy. The place was exactly how he describes it. The space is large. Bigger than the pictures depict. Clean and bright with tall ceilings, large bedrooms and bathrooms and all the amenities you need. You can tell that he cares about this place and his guests. The location is one of the reason why I chose his place. It is conveniently located near several parks and trails and the drive into downtown was only 15 minutes! The secluded area is extremely serene and waking up to the view is just an added bonus. I only wish I stayed longer to explore the rest of Vincent's recommendation. Everything we tried was spot on!

Nicole2015-04-05T00:00:00Z

Vincent was welcoming and had a binder of great information about the area including hiking and parks. We were in for a quick work weekend and agreed we could have stayed a week. The deck and views are exquisite. We were lucky enough to get a full moon and a clear night. Gorgeous. The kitchen is well stocked and Vincent is generous in allowing full use of it. All in all, we can't wait to visit Austin again and hope this rental is available!

Lara2016-01-24T00:00:00Z

Cool little spot right off the main house. Useful kitchen and a really great view

Paul2016-01-05T00:00:00Z

We had a great time staying at Vincent's house. Even though it was just for two nights, Vincent was very welcoming and made us feel right at home. The house is clean and very spacious, the view is really something to behold and I wish we could have experienced more of the atmosphere.

Jessica2017-05-12T00:00:00Z

Great clean and simple place. Just a few minutes drive from the lake. Love the pool and the fitness center in the complex and Kaley made things really simple for us to check in and out. Thanks for the great stay.

Jeff2017-06-07T00:00:00Z

Our time at Kaley's place has been simply awesome. We've sadly only had one night but could've stayed a week. Easily. Austin itself is great, and Kaley has loads of suggestions of where to eat, drink, or anything you can think of. Quick note, this is not close to central Austin, where the major nightlife is, you will need to journey in about 20 mins. This however is the only thing you must take into consideration when booking. Because If you want secluded luxury for a fraction of the price, this is going to do it for you. The facilities and pool looked great (unfortunately we arrived late and it was raining so didn't go in) and the place is immaculate and spacious, loads of room for 2, even 3 if you don't mind using the sofa bed. It even has a balcony and view. I wouldn't hesitate to come back. Thanks for everything Kaley!

Ryan2017-06-01T00:00:00Z

One of the nicest places I've stayed at. Next time I'm in town it's the first place I'll look for.

Mayra's place was great! Clean, cozy, nice view. Exactly what we were hoping for. Thank you for hosting us!

Ariel2017-03-20T00:00:00Z

We had a great time here. The place was extremely clean and had everything we needed to cook, i.e. pots, pans, utensils, tongs, anything we needed, we found! It was also a great place to bring our dogs. That was one of the main reasons we chose this place. Our dogs loved exploring the garden area in the back. The pool was nice and clean. My son loved having it all to himself. The location is great too. It's not quite on the lake but it's directly across the street. You have a great view when you are sitting upstairs, outside by the pool. It has two beds and both were comfortable. One is in the bedroom and the other is in the main room, where the kitchen is. It's an unusual layout but it works for the space! Tv is small with limited channels but we didn't go to watch tv so it didn't bother us at all. Overall we had a great time. I would definitely recommend to anyone who wants a quiet, peaceful getaway near the water.

John2017-05-29T00:00:00Z

Adorable little condo! It was just like we were at the beach. The beds are comfy and there is PLENTY of space.

Elizabeth2017-06-25T00:00:00Z

Super cute place! Very pretty and colorful! Perfect for a girls weekend. Great location for everything we had planned for the weekend. Zip lining, checking out some vineyards, eating at the oasis and enjoying the sunset. Great place and location. And last but not least mayra was very helpful and very easy to get in contact with when we needed help or had questions. Highly recommend her place.

SELINA2017-04-02T00:00:00Z

Nice place for couples. Highly recommend staying here and I would repeat stay in the future.

Kelley2017-04-21T00:00:00Z

Secluded location perfect for a weekend getaway. Nice pool and garden area. Mayra was a great host, efficient and prompt communication and even allowed us to use the kayaks/ paddle boat at her other BnB that's close by.

Taylor2017-07-10T00:00:00Z

Big things come in small packages is the first thing that comes to mind here. This house is in a fantastic location for someone looking to be just secluded enough, yet still fairly close to the action of Austin. Stacy is a phenomenal host, who has prepped this tiny house to accommodate many great stays. I highly recommend choosing the tiny house for your next Austin/Lake Travis adventure, and am confident you won't be sorry you did.

Paul2017-07-16T00:00:00Z

Amazing spot! The location is fantastic. Walk to the dock to use the SUPboard or kayak, sit on the shaded back deck and relax, drive 5-10 min to eat or a bit further to Pace Park to trail ride. Everything is so easy and close, but you feel very secluded at the house. The house was clean, had adequate sleeping, was cool in the heat of late July and was just cozy. The host was very kind and had great communication. Will be doing a repeat visit for sure!

Jay2017-07-30T00:00:00Z

Tiny house is a great way to get away from the city. It Is located on awesome property with the lake right there! Stacy was so nice and made sure we had everything we needed. We were able to to bring our dog who loves the outdoors and swimming, we will sure to be back!

Amanda2017-08-07T00:00:00Z

Such a cute place! Quiet and peaceful. Stacy is just the best host. My friend and I had such I nice time relaxing on the deck overlooking the water with a cup of coffee. Plenty of room inside to stretch out. Wonderful trip!

Kristin2017-09-04T00:00:00Z

Great "tiny house" and wonderful host. Finding the location is a little tricky once the sun goes down but the location was perfect for my needs.

The tiny house was in a perfect location for a quiet getaway. Stacy was very communicative and friendly, and she made sure that we had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. I would definitely stay here again.

This private, quiet, 800 sq. ft. studio apartment has a Lake Travis view from the kitchen window and is located close to Mansfield Dam park, watercraft rentals, and margaritas at the Oasis. Only 30 min. to downtown Austin. The bathroom has a tub/shower, toilet and sink. The kitchen has stone counter top, full-size refrigerator, microwave, dishwasher, gas stove, pans and utensils. You will enjoy the cable TV and ultra high speed 300 Mbps wireless internet. You may park in the garage too!

Quiet neighborhood right next to Lake Travis and Lake Austin. Your 800 sq. ft. studio apartment is above the garage. It has a private entrance via code through the garage. We do not have an elevator, so you must be able to climb stairs. We have 2 double beds plus a blow up mattress, so it will accommodate at least 4 people.

Our quiet neighborhood is in the Lake Travis area on the western edge of Austin. We are right next to the Mansfield Dam and Mansfield Dam Park and boat launch area. There is plenty of room to park your boat on our 2 acre property if you need to do so. We have a boat/jet ski rental company nearby called Just For Fun. We recommend the Hill Country Galleria Mall, which is approx. 9 miles south on RR 620. There you will find lots of restaurants, a movie theatre, retail stores, bars and a Whole Foods grocery store with a pub upstairs. **If you are planning on going downtown everyday, please look for a downtown Airbnb. We are 30-45 min. away from downtown, depending on traffic, but we are still in Austin. In fact, we go downtown just about every weekend.

Jim& Deb are a great personable hosts. We enjoyed our stay and they made us at ease. The room is spacious and clean and from their house you can enjoy the beautiful panoramic view of Lake Austin and the Hill Country. Highly recommend their place.

Nicholas2017-07-19T00:00:00Z

The place was nice, cozy and quiet. We enjoyed our stay. Jim & Deb were very welcoming and accommodating. This place is great if you would like to stay outside of Austin and enjoy the beautiful scenery that the Hill Country has to offer!

Sarah2017-01-15T00:00:00Z

Jim and Deb were amazing hosts. Their home is beautiful and it is super peaceful, especially if you're just trying to getaway and relax from all the normal city life. I definitely would come back to them again and I recommend anyone who wants to have a nice and quiet vacation to consider them.

Kimberly2016-08-13T00:00:00Z

Absolutely perfect place for small family weekend getaway. Jim and Deb were very friendly to us and our puppies and even offered to check on them while we were away. The apartment was spotless clean and had everything we needed. Jim helped us to change our plans from outdoor to indoor due to weather. Definitely will be back! Thank you again, Jim and Deb!

Mariya2016-08-17T00:00:00Z

This place has everything that you need for a relaxing and comfortable stay. The hosts couldn't be better people either! If you are lucky enough to get booked on their calendar, you will love it!!!

Akala 2017-08-14T00:00:00Z

If you are looking for a quiet, clean retreat space, this is it. We were two adults, and the studio space was perfect for us and nicely laid out and decorated. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was large and nicely done. Jim and Deb were friendly, communicative and very accommodating with our travel delays. My only complaint is that we didn't have more time to stay and enjoy it longer! The next time I find myself in the Austin area, I won't hesitate to stay here again.

kaite2017-07-22T00:00:00Z

Everything was exactly like how it is described. The location of the place is perfect. The host couldn't have been nicer. The apartment is fully stacked with everything that you need. One minor thing I would suggest the host replace is the shower head. It is a little outdated. I would 1000% recommend this place and will book again whenever I come to lake Travis!

Artist's studio with the feel of a tree house with a view of Lake Travis. Two night minimum stay.

This is a unique space with the feel of a tree house. On the upstairs deck there is a view of Lake Travis.

Set in a quiet neighborhood with lake access.

Very pleasant stay. Location was perfect for doing lake activities and visiting the various nature attractions. Will stay again for sure!

Kevin2016-07-31T00:00:00Z

Great location, quiet and peaceful with access to neighborhood amenities. Very pleasant stay!

Samuel2017-01-08T00:00:00Z

Great stay! Bay was very accommodating. Amazing host and comfortable, spacious place. Great for a relaxing weekend by lake Travis yet close to Austin's nightlife. You get the best of both.

Penny2017-08-06T00:00:00Z

My stay at Bay's artist loft studio was amazing! Extremely quiet and peaceful. The loft sits up on the third story with a deck looking out over the tree tops and even a glimpse of the lake a few blocks over. It is very regenerating for us hectic business types. The facility has a wonderful ambiance and very attractive. It was amazing how quiet is was and still only 30 minutes from downtown. Bay is an awesome person with a very pleasant personality that seems to fit right along with his property. For the money this is a double thumbs up!

bruce2016-04-30T00:00:00Z

I actually was unable to stay with James due to a last minute issue causing me to cancel my flights and trip. That being said, James was very clear and professional in all of his communication and gave me detailed instructions. Very easy to work with.

Victor2016-04-05T00:00:00Z

Bay's place was a lovely getaway. Everything we needed was there. It was a cozy little loft with a nice view and homey feel. There were also quite a few shopping centers somewhat near.

Samuel2016-08-20T00:00:00Z

Bay's place was was perfect for us. The loft was clean, cozy and well kept. Great location, secluded with access to great outdoor activities but still close to shops and restaurants. Enjoyed sitting up on the balcony where you could even see the lake just over the trees. Was a very comfortable getaway. Bay himself was a very easy going guy, resposnive to our questions, friendly but also gave us plenty of space to feel like we were at our own home. I would def recommend staying at Bay's loft. Great place and great value.

Ryan2017-02-14T00:00:00Z

Bay's place was a perfect stay. Beautiful area near lake Travis but not a far drive into downtown. The loft has great style and was a safe, serene retreat during our travels. Bay and his son and law were both wonderful hosts and made sure we were comfortable, yet it felt like our own private home.

Sleeps 6-8, 3 BR, 2 BA w/showers. Fully-stocked kitchen w/stove, oven, microwave, refr/frzr, and Kuerig, AC/heat. Portable gas grill is available upon request.

Just a quick note due to a few less than 5 star reviews. Please remember, this is a classic older yacht undergoing restoration and remodel. It is very nice and great place as can be seen under our reviews and pictures. If your are expecting a brand-new multi million dollar yacht for the price we have it listed for, please understand it is a wonderful classic boat not a brand-new one. We have many many great reviews and it seems some people are thinking they can have a brand new boat for 7 or 8 people for less than hotel rooms for that many people. We strive to offer the best time and honest description of the place(URL HIDDEN) Enjoy the spectacular view of Lake Travis from the dock while staying onboard this beautifully appointed and comfortable classic yacht. Please note that standard Airb&b rates are for at the dock use only. Please inquire about summer dates that are blocked and devil's cove adventure rates. Wellbread is a gathering spot for the "fun" crowd at the cove. Paddle board and kayak available during summer.

We had a wonderful time on Frank's boat! He is such a fun host! The boat is very roomy and in a perfect spot to swim and kayak. We will be coming back!

Alyssa2017-07-23T00:00:00Z

Had an awesome stay with family and friends.

Kesha2017-01-15T00:00:00Z

Frank and his wife are an amazing couple! We had so much fun getting to know them. They made us feel right at home and were very accommodating. My friends and I had a blast spending the weekend aboard the boat. We never had to leave! There was plenty of space for all of us to sleep and the king size bed in the master is awesome. The marina was very secure. The locals were also very friendly and we enjoyed hanging out with them as well. I 100% recommend a stay on the Well-Bread, you won't regret it!

Tara2017-06-11T00:00:00Z

Plenty of room to sleep. The beds are memory foam and very comfortable. Frank left us with beer and liquor and a stocked fridge which was much appreciated. He blessed our hunting trip with holy water and tales of hog slaughter. The boat is large and private. Plus Frank's a badass and it helps having a cool host.

C2017-03-02T00:00:00Z

This was the perfect venue for a mini family reunion. We were 10 people (mostly local, two from out of state), ranging from 10 year old twin boys(who found lots of places to play hide and go seek) to 78 year olds (who navigated the steps fairly well and danced the night away on the back deck under the lights which were synced to the music in our playlist). The water was 30-40' deep around the boat so jumping off was a blast and the 23-49 year old men had a cannonball and gainer contest!!! There was something for everyone. Our host was accommodating, communicative, encouraging of our good time, and generously reminded us to relax and enjoy our day! Make sure to take advantage of the golf cart amentity (tipping required) for ease in loading and unloading. Bring coolers if you like your beer ice cold (refridge works well unless you have people nonstop opening and closing - but we were prepared for that). We had a really good party from just after check in 3:00 pm until quiet time at 10:00 pm, then we turned the music down low and swam/floated to the music and lighting until after midnight. After saying goodbye to most of our guests, we stumbled to the master stateroom where we were super comfortable (love the large temperpedic mattress!). We experienced one of the heaviest rainstorms in years (7" in 12 hours) while onboard (started after midnight). We felt very safe and cozy riding it out. It was actually very romantic after a successful event entertaining our loved ones. We will be back! Highly recommend even for locals who want a unique gathering venue! Easy, fun, unique!!!!!

MOIRA2017-08-07T00:00:00Z

My husband and I, along with our dog, stayed on the Well Bread to celebrate my husbands birthday. We had an amazing time and really enjoyed just hanging on the boat and grilling. The boat had everything we needed, and was very spacious and comfortable. Frank and Pacey were super friendly and very responsive before and during our stay. We will definitely be coming back here again, and highly recommend it those looking for a relaxing lake getaway.

Danielle2017-04-29T00:00:00Z

THE BOAT SHOULD STAY DOCKED AT THE MARINA AND CAN NOT BE TAKEN OUT! A family vacation, romantic getaway, team building, or a fun trip with
friends?
This spacious 3-level, 55-foot Airstream houseboat in Paradise Cove Marina
has undergone renovation and is complete with global style interiors, 1
Queen bed, 2 double beds, 2 bathrooms, and elegant living and kitchen areas.
It also offers a pull-out single bed /couch, outdoor sleeping on the rooftop
and is ideally suited for up to 6 people.

Enjoy the spectacular sunrises and sunsets of Lake Travis from the top deck on
the elegant 1,100 sq ft La Mala Airstream houseboat designed for you to feel
completely at home!
This spacious 3-level, 55-foot houseboat in Paradise Cove Marina is complete
with international style interiors, 1 bedroom with a queen bed, another
bedroom with 2 double beds, 2 bathrooms, living room, kitchen and outdoor
sleeping space on the rooftop for approximately 4 people (if you have your own sleeping bag). Space is ideally suited for up to 6 people but could sleep up to 10. Please note the bedroom with 2 double beds has a low ceiling, requiring guests to crawl in order to access one of the beds. Guests are also welcome to use the 3 large bathrooms, 1 with a shower, which are located next to the marina office and are accessible with a code.
I am an environmentalist and always wanted to live on a boat so finally
purchased one and remodeled to make it look like an Airstream on water. I
named it La Mala because it reminds me of La Mala Beach. This is one of my favorite beaches near Monaco in the south of France that has an amazing view and is surrounded by a limestone cliff.
What I love about living on this houseboat: 1) I have an unobstructed view
of the lake 2) hanging out on the deck and back porch watching the ducks and
fish jumping early in the mornings 3) being out on the water and immersed in nature 4) it’s a bit adventurous and off the beaten path.
The houseboat has dark hardwood floors with local Austin limestone
countertops and staircase. Some of the limestone is fossilized with
shells and sea life. Austin has the only limestone quarries in the US with
fossils that are millions of years old. The fossils sank to the bottom of the quarries as they were very heavy. Lake Travis is a limestone lake and a couple of years ago when the lake level was down 45 feet it felt like you were swimming in a limestone swimming pool. The walls are constructed from aluminum, featuring silver coloured decor and the front and back porches and top deck are carpeted. I added local Austin harvested bamboo for décor which is somewhat
of a Greek, Mediterranean, Moroccan and Indian influence.
Great for family vacations, a romantic getaway or a fun trip with friends!
Have fun on the La Mala houseboat no matter what the occasion!

Solid place, just more for groups than couples. Overall a nice boat and the host was always available for any questions.

Cody2017-07-23T00:00:00Z

Really enjoyed our stay. We had direct access to water sports and the view was lovely. Our host was awesome. He was waiting for us at the peer and made himself available afterwords by phone. The boat was clean and updated. We had a great time.

The bathroom is private and very comfortable. It is near the Oasis, area parks and the drive to the property is very scenic. The location is very quick to the airport because the routing circumvents the heavily trafficked routes.

Thomas and Jamille are GREAT hosts, their house is clean, bright and beautiful ! Room is clean and bright with little balcony viewing lake Travis from above, provides view as if we were somewhere in Europe! Location is great too and 4 minutes drive only from Oasis-huge restaurants and shop places with VERY GOOD quality of food and live music, facing the lake. The pictures I made show as if we were in St Tropez or Mediterranian! Thomas and Jamille provides ample of information and letting us to have great privacy. We love their cute pooch Ace too..would definitely recommend this place ! Thank you guys for being excellent hosts !

trisniati2017-07-08T00:00:00Z

We had the pleasure to be Thomas's and Jamilles's first guests on Airbnb. Thomas & Jamille have a lovely multi-story home just walking distance from to Lake Travis. Your room comes with a comfy memory foam bed along with your own bathroom. Every room has it's own private balcony with views or partial view of Lake Travis. Thomas and Jamille are young warm welcoming professionals willing to accommodate you and they do there part at providing you the privacy and comfort you need. Ace there dog is sweet and mild mannered as well. My girlfriend, Duke crazy (Big dog) and I couldn't of ask for more out of our stay. We truly enjoyed the private owners cove! If you are looking to explore the surrounding areas, relax and take in the beautiful scenery this place is for you.

Fernando2017-07-04T00:00:00Z

Travis2017-01-22T00:00:00Z

Overall, a nice place to stay and close for us to visit family. It was clean and comfortable, and we appreciated having the kitchen available and the neighborhood was safe and quiet. Johncarlo was very responsive to any questions we had, and quickly fixed a small problem with towels. The only issue we had was that it was lacking a few basic amenities you might expect with an full apartment (e.g., dish soap), so just be aware.

Hillary2017-08-06T00:00:00Z

Great value for the price.

Samantha2017-01-29T00:00:00Z

Johncarlo was a very good host and a great communicator! We enjoyed our time in this nice posting in a quiet neighborhood. We would recommend this place to a friend or visit again.

Austin2017-02-20T00:00:00Z

A beautiful, comfortable, and spacious place to relax! And Johncarlo is quick to respond even when he is far away. Great experience staying here.

Quiet and secluded the cottage is a beautiful home on an acre with private Lake Travis access just yards away. This owner built home has many unique details. The main floor is on the second story and has a large deck across the front.

Quiet and secluded the cottage is a beautiful home on an acre of land with private Lake Travis access. Owner built the home has many unique details. The house starts on the second story and has a large deck across the front.
The kitchen has many large windows affording wonderful views of the private lot. With an abundance of custom built cabinets, lots of counter space, a huge sink (with garbage disposal) and a dishwasher it is a pleasure to both cook and clean in.
The kitchen is open to the vaulted living room. This room also has many large windows, a private deck, a fireplace and very comfortable furniture.
The main bedroom is a large suite with a pillowtop king size bed, private bathroom with an oversize tub, and lots of light.
The second bedroom, tucked away upstairs, has a queen size bed, a small writing table, barrel vaulted ceiling and a large picture window. It has lake views. It is secluded and has a private half bath, office and lots of storage.
There is a media room downstairs with a 55" TV, stereo sound, blackout curtains and more super comfy furniture.
The cottage is located in a private residential neighborhood and, although it's very near many excellent restaurants (including Hudsons on the Bend) and lots of shopping, it feels quiet and remote.
The house is elevated about 8 feet, so every window has a view of the trees or the sky. There is a large deck for gathering, and a crows nest for seclusion. Its almost a tree house.

The neighborhood is quiet and pleasant. Lake Travis is just at the corner, and access is limited to guests and residents. There are long walking trails along the lake and you could get lost for an hour or two with the sunset ahead of you and starry night skies (unless the moon is out). Lots of owls, crickets, fireflies, roadrunners, deer, and the occasional fox.
It is low key here--not quite country, but not quite suburbia.

Beautiful place and in a tremendous secluded location. Even had a dip in the lake. Great for lovers of peace. We even saw deer in the garden. Just what we were after. Alan was also first class in communication - responding immediately by text to every request. Can highly recommend.

Matt2016-10-17T00:00:00Z

Alan was extremely accommodating during the booking process, prior to the stay, answered questions along the way and was friendly to communicate with. The house came with a welcome letter which outlined logistics and details for the stay. There was water, fruit, coffee and cookies when we arrived with friendly notes throughout the house which helped us find things along the way. The pictures didn't do the home justice. Very spacious and relaxing. The sky lights were a wonderful experience. We will certainly stay with Alan again and I'd be happy to recommend his home to friends and family.

Rachael2015-06-08T00:00:00Z

This place was magical! The deck felt like a treehouse and we had our own semi-private access to the lake (we didn't see anyone when we were there). There were some pretty huge spiders outside, but it was cool watching them spin their webs and eat their prey. Alan was a great host, allowing us to stay past checkout to have one last dip in the lake. Thank you!

Daniel2015-09-29T00:00:00Z

This is a very cool and very unique place. Alan was very responsive and friednly. If you race sailboats, I found it first!

Andre2017-04-09T00:00:00Z

Alan's place is wonderful. It is close enough to the city to enjoy all the amenities,yet still distant enough for quiet peaceful weekend. The kitchen is large and spacious and the perfect place to cook and enjoy a nice meal. Looking at the stars at night from the top balcony is just amazing. Although we were unable to meet Alan in person, he was quick and to respond. Alan is a gracious host and we will definitely plan to stay here, once back in the area.

Kirandeep2015-12-07T00:00:00Z

Loved the house and it was a great experience.

Leroy2014-05-20T00:00:00Z

Really great lake house. Very quiet neighborhood. Really amazing decks on both sides of the house. Was fully stocked if you plan on cooking, and the host was a great communicator and left an amazing guide for guests.
